Yawn. If you are not going to look at the down side of the situation in any fight, you will be slaughtered, up to it or not. One favorable poll, and you’re fooling yourself. I’m waiting for the debates and continuous stumping to make an impact, but in the interim, Trump is not ahead just because of one poll, when the other polls show Hillary ahead.
Yes, but if you perseverate on the downside it gives your enemy an advantage they should’t have. Also, polling helps to create and push narratives, not just report trends. Demoralization is a very, very strong tool.
There is no downside. You are just too gullible and have no idea how to win!
